The Food Story was a story about our favorite food or drink. It was made to read to our partner so we can learn about each other's foods and the stories behind them. It was a very important first step because it had all the info we needed to start.
The Partner Food Recipe was one of the next steps, besides the blueprint and comic, which I couldn't find. It was the recipe for your partner's food, for example, my partner was Melanie. Her food was steak, and I had to look up a steak recipe for her. Then we had to put it all on a canvas sheet, but able to make it readable.
The Food Machine was the finished product or the last assignment for the Food project. We had to think about all the assignments we had done before and sort of make it into a machine that tells the story. We did it based on a Rube Goldberg machine. I did one where we used marbles, cardboard, boxes, dominoes, rulers, and Legos. And my partner sort of combined our story in a way where we go to the store to get the items and then go back home to make it, which is what is shown.
The food project proposal was a document we filled out to prove and show why we chose our project. It included things like the new name, the old project, how it's gonna be related to food, steps and time, how it will be displayed, materials, challenges, and what I need from my teachers.
The Artist statement was made to be a really detailed description of your Wicked Food Project. It was really important to have, so when we set up the exhibition, it was just your project and this piece of paper. If you didn't have it, then you would have to explain it with little detail on the spot. It includes the original project, what you do, how it's connected to food, what it represents, how it's gonna work, and what I expected.
The Spice Boat was my Wicked Arts assignment finished product. It was the end of all my drafts and writings. To make it, I used gallon plastic bottles, cardboard, and a styrofoam type of post boards. I used duct tape and marine tape, I think it's called. I made a flat boat and made high walls. The goal was to go across the bay with some fruits in hand. I decided to simulate the Culumbos Exchange. I wanted to show how scary it was for Christiphor himself, sailing in waters he didn't know. That's exactly what happened, Liam went on my boat and didn't know the waters, but he still pushed through it, and it floated the whole time. But I couldn't sail myself because I couldn't get my cast wet, and the water was too dirty to go too deep, so it was barely offshore.
For the Physics side of the project, we made a wheel that included things like Transportation, money, farming, and farm-to-table behind how we get our food here in San Diego. We first grow in farms, we then transport it here in San Diego, then we pay for it, then boom, farm to table. For example, my group did five guy fries; they grow their Russet Potatoes in Blackfoot, Idaho. But here's where the physics part comes out, we had to find the watts and energy in a m2, and for 10 potatoes. We used formulas we learned specifically, MHG and E/T, so we used those formulas to find the total jewels.
The Unpredictability Project was when we had to research with a partner about something that is unpredictable. For example, mine was a Traffic Jam. It was unpredictable because you can't tell who is gonna crash, be mad, or doesn't know how to drive out of nowhere. It also includes things like where you can find, how we can see, the feeling, what causes it, and what a traffic jam is.
The identity card is a project we did in math class, which was one of the first projects. It included using different types of graphs, such as pie, whisker, and box. We had learned every type of graph to do this project. After we learned we had to choose how to use them, we decided to use them on questions. As shown, I used one with how many siblings do you have. I used a pie chart on Google Sheets, and everyone answered the question, so I input the answers, and it gave me the pie chart.
The Desmos Final Portrait was a Graph with different types of lines we used to trace a portrait of our face. I used all three types of lines: linear, circular, and parabolic. I put a picture of my face, and it was very difficult at first, but then I eventually got the questions on point and started being accurate. The formula for the equations is [Linear- y=mx+b] [Circular- (x-h)2 + (y-k)2 = r2] [Prabola- y = a(x - h)2 + k]
The Annotations was for the Desmos face portrait, it was used to show how we did it by using one part of the portrait. As shown on the left, I decided to use my eye. I used a Prabola line and then a linear line on top to connect. You can see the equation I made for the lines that were put on the graph.
